GSXR or H/C?
well right now I have the money for P&Ped heads and cams, but I was thinking about getting a motorcycle, the bike would have to wait, I do live in CT so bikes are not too good int he winter. WHat are your opinions, I figure that I'd be the only kid with a bike so thatd be tight, and the bike would be faster than the mustang would ever be. Do you think the heads/cams are worth it?>

Personally, Id say go with the heads and cam, theres A LOT more room for error in a car. If you drive anything like I do, kinda crazy, then I wouldnt get the bike, all I can say is nothin but trouble. Not to mention, all those people in SUV's that dont pay attention to smaller vehicles. Just my .02.

RE: GSXR or H/C?
if your scavanging for cash, then you shouldnt buy a bike.... one reason. insurance its awful if your under 25 and it doesnt get much better when your over 25, imo stick with the stang. i know a guy that drives a 5.0 stroked out to a 347 all motor runs 10.6 in the 1/4. i would feel alot safer in that than a bike. theres a reason they make you have a roll cage if you run under certian times... bc going that fast is dangerous as hell

I just got a 2006 Honda CBR 600RR and it's a blast. I have a new look at the mustang now. Instead of dumping all of my money in the thing to make it the faster I can do other things like brake upgrades and style things because if I want speed I can just get on the bike.

Thats where you are wrong sir, most bikes including hayabusa's only run mid to high 9's, last time I was at the drag strip I saw a sn-95 that was runnin 6.50's. Hell there was a stock looking, stock chassis 68 chevelle SS that was runnin high 6's low 7's.

Get the bike. I have been riding since I was 16(zx11) and I have always had some type of muscle or sport car. Their is nothing like driving your mustang home and then getting on your bike. I am a salesmanger at a local dealership in MD if you are close I will take care of you.
